Location beats the price if you want a quick stay before you have an early morning plane flight to SFO. Really appreciated that there was a shuttle service, which made the trip really convenient.

Good choice if you have an upcoming flight at SFO. Very close with a 3-5 minute drive to the airport. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout visit. The rooms are comfortable and mostly clean. I noticed grime built up on the light switches, door hinges and corners that could use some detailing. Otherwise, everything worked as it should. Bed is between firm and soft.

Clean, quiet room, with excellent airport shuttle

Basic room although clean and I especially appreciated the clock. Microwave is a plus and food vending machine available on each floor. Shuttle was efficient and on-time Desk clerk was especially attentive and made sure that we were waiting in the correct location as our pick up was before dawn.
